As i have said, if a disk is untouched, i cant call it cracked or fixed. Of course, if someone searches the complete particular crack, TOSEC collection would not be useful. I try to explain: TOSEC holds exact copies of french Flashback Originals Disks 1 - 4. Interpol cracked Disk 1 and released unmodified Disks 2 -4.(crc32) I cant call the Original disks 2 -4 cracked!!! There are a lot of examples, where 2 different groups released multi disk games, where Disks 2- 4(for example) is exactly the same(crc32), because of no protection or no modification. So one group never get a disk 2-4 in TOSEC. There are also a lot of examples in TOSEC, where following disks rightly are not named as cracked/fixed, although a group released this disk. Of course a have to be very careful! I do a lot of investigation, comparing.(IPF, original scene releases). Last edited by mai; 03 June 2011 at 12:38. |

I do the same when I check what I have transferred over from floppy. I'm quite surprised that most of my 15 year transfers did not have errors.

I see nothing wrong with mai's way of doing things, as I consider the original disk images to be a 'source' (second only to the master disks) and crack/fix release to be a modification. Identical images to the source releases are redundant.
Of course if there are different source versions then the crack release should indicate which version it is based on. Just my 2c |

You'll have to wait when I finish beating all of the games. I finished all the action games, but stopped at the beginning of RPG stuff as they take longer. Maybe I'll pick up again one of these days, but I seem to have less time now than before.
